French Win Overshadowed By Paris Nightmare

A tragic night in the French Captial, Paris, has overshadowed a famous win for the French national Football team.

Olivier Giroud and Andre-Pierre Gignac scored as France beat World Champions Germany 2-0 at the Stade De France last night.

Though what was happening on the outside was unknown to many on the inside. Mid way through the first half of the game, explosions could be heard outside the stadium with the crowd thinking a fan had set off a firework, though the reality is, it was much worse.

Three people were killed inside as an apparent suicide bomer blew himself up near gate J of the stadium.

The game continued to the end as authorities did not want to spark a state of panic from supporters. Players watched on in shock in the tunnel area as fans spilled onto the pitch.

It's now thought the friendly international between England and France on Tuesday will be cancelled in wake of the attacks.
